Software Information
about the
Linux PCs
This document has old content, but for the latest Debian 2.2 release installed
on all 17 (soon 19) PC workstations you can look at the list of installed
packages (created by 'dpkg -l'):
stwlicfg_deb22_08_2000.sel.
The frequently used software should now (28. November, 1997) be installed
individually on each of the new PCs (aibn35, 37, 38, 39, 42, 43, 44,
45, 46)
operating under S.u.S.E. Linux
5.0-5.3, the system programs which are part of the normal
Linux distribution:
- XFree86 with the standard window manager FVWM2, teTeX, xfig, xpaint,
xv, gimp, ghostview, vi (vim), emacs, f77, gcc ...,
see the file stwlicfg_suse50_11_1997.sel for details of the installed packages
and the additionally installed software
(in '/usr/lib/...' with links to the executables in
'/usr/bin'):
- Netscape Navigator 4.08 [and 3.04/2.02] and Communicator 4.08/4.5b1,
NCSA Mosaic 2.7b5,
Amaya 1.3b (and 1.2a/1.1c),
SuperMongo
('sm', version 2.4.0),
MIDAS
97NOVpl2.1 (and 96NOVpl2.1/95NOVpl2.2; all without the X-ray package
for the analysis of ROSAT data
EXSAS),
IRAF 2.11.1, the new
SAO
Image 1.22 and the photometry software SExtractor 2.0.15
('/usr/lib/sextractor').
Please note that you have to adapt/adopt your config files in your login
directory ('~', normally '/user3/username'), namely
- '.cshrc'
- for C-SHell [csh|tcsh] users, including an if-branch for Linux
(for users of the standard Linux Shell, the Born Again SHell [bash],
it's a little bit different),
- '.xinitrc'
- and
- '.Xresources'
- for XFree86 (the graphic system),
- '.fvwm2rc'
- for the standard window manager (latest version 06.10.1997),
- '.alias'
- file for aliases valid on all Unix Systems (Ultrix, OSF/1 and Linux),
which mustn't have path definitions for netscape, midas, iraf, etc.,
- '.alias-linux'
- for special setting, including TeX path and prompt and at last
- '.exrc'
- for vi.
You may find examples of these files (only in beta-versions, I still have to
fix some minor problems) in '~sysstw/conf'.
A better set may be available from Georg (e.g. with
variable definitions in '.login', i.e. valid in the window manager) -
we should soon provide a new set of example configuration files.
If you encounter any problem/bug/difficulty, feel free to contact me (via
E-Mail or personally, in
room 3.08 in front of
'aibn45').
Good Luck and FAST Working,
